What I claim is:

a mechanism for toy talking machines, w Y consists of only few and simple parts, so that A driving mechanism for toy talking mathis driving mechanism can be easily manufactured at a low price. It is an essential feature of the present invention that the y driving of the toy talking machine is effected driving mechamsm; a vertical by a crank osed for securing a satisfactory degree of uniformity in the to support on its upper a friction diskmounted loosely on t e said vertical shaft; a horizontal shaft journalled in the casing h its revolutions of the revolving table supporting the record, the irregularities due to hand drive being completely compensated. The annexed drawing shows by way of` example a toy talking machine according to the present invention, in which Figs. l and 2 illustrate the driving gear in a cross section and in a longitudinal section respectively.

The toy talking machine consists of the casing a and the sound receiving tube reproducing the sound waves. In the casing a a vertical shaft c. is journalled carrying at its upper end a horizontal rotating table b adapted to take up a record. On this shaft c a friction disk d is loosely'mounted coacting with a further friction disk i, which horizontal shaft e, the projectis fixed on a ing end of which is shaped to form a cr and shaped to form wit projecting end a crank handle; a further friction disk fixed on said horizontal shaft and adapted to engage with the friction disk on the said vertical shaft; a spiral spring arranged above the loosely mounted friction disk on the said vertical shaft and adapted to engage with its one end with the loosely mounte friction disk and with the other end with the vertical shaft; a further iral spring provided below the friction dis on the vertical shaft and adapted to maintain the friction lly in frictional 4disk automatica gear with the disk on the said horizontal shaft.
